More Information
Why Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment is a procedure designed to save your natural tooth by removing infected or damaged pulp from within the root canals.
The process involves cleaning and disinfecting the canals, then sealing them to prevent future infection. A crown is often placed over the treated tooth to restore its strength and appearance.
Root canal treatment is a reliable solution for preserving your natural tooth, avoiding extraction, and maintaining your smile’s functionality and aesthetics.
This is typically for teeth with one root canal, such as incisors or canines. It’s usually the simplest type of root canal treatment.
This is for teeth with multiple roots and canals, such as premolars or molars. These procedures can be more complex due to the additional canals that need to be cleaned and sealed.
Procedure
Three Steps To A Confident Smile
1. Initial Consultation
Your dentist will examine the tooth, take X-rays, and determine if a root canal is needed. They’ll explain the procedure and answer any questions.
2. Procedure
The dentist will numb the area, remove the infected or damaged pulp, clean and disinfect the root canals, and then seal them to prevent further infection.
3. Restoration and Aftercare
After the root canal, the tooth is often restored with a crown for strength and protection. You’ll receive aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing.
